(AP)–Three sisters say they were kicked out of a suburban Philadelphia mall
after refusing to remove profanity-laden hats expressing their hatred of
breast cancer.

Zakia Clark and Tasha Clark had been at the King of Prussia Mall on
Sunday shopping for funeral dresses with a third sister, Makia
Underwood. Their mother died last week after battling the disease.

Zakia and Tasha Clark were wearing hats that had a one-word profanity —
with a pink ribbon substituting for the third letter — before the word
cancer. Zakia Clark says it's the only word strong enough to defeat the
word 'cancer.'

Security asked them to remove the hats. They were ejected after refusing.

Mall manager Robert Hart says he sends condolences to the sisters, but
that the mall is a family place where the code of conduct does not
tolerate profanity.
